A mammoth crowd fanned out at the Enyimba International Stadium, Aba, the commercial nerve of Abia State, as the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life Christian Ministry (DLCM) Pastor William Kumuyi preached in his yearly visit there.

Over 100,000 people, among whom were those who came in from outside the city and state, listened to the preacher.

The theme of the crusade was “A Day to Change Your World.”

The crusade lasted over four hours, attracting clergies of other denominations, professionals from all walks of life, those suffering various ailments and the barren, amongst others.

Some of them including Pastor Emmanuel Offor said that they could not afford to miss what they described as the undiluted teaching and spiritual impartation of the word of God.

They said that importance of being part of the event especially now that the country is passing through various challenges including insecurity, high cost of living, loss of job and unemployment, among others, cannot be over-emphasised.

Over 20 persons claimed to have been healed of various ailments.

Special prayers were also said for the church, Abia State, the country and its citizens.

There was also a special song rendition from the church’s choir during the event.

Kumuyi spoke on the topic, “A Day to Change Your World”.

He said, “I love the people of Abia State as you know and the brethren and believers in general are quite receptive to the Word of God and they love the Lord and I see their response and I want to be of tremendous benefit to both the people in the church and outside the church and to connect them with the power of God and salvation of the Lord.”

He was asked: What informed the theme of the crusade?

“People are looking for change. There is a kind of national and global problem in various communities, families and problem within individual and then we need a change for the better and God will make that change so because of that we want to tell the people that this day could be the day of hope, healing, advance and the day of moving forward in various ways that is why we have the topic of the theme as ‘’the day for change and wonder of the Lord”.

Another question was how the crusade would impact the life of the average Nigerian in economic recession.

His answer: “We understand that in a programme like this we have different kinds of people that is common people that are just concern for their own personal problem and when you heal their problem just like many people today that got some spiritual that they couldn’t receive adequate healing their testimony is that they are heal instantaneously. Other people with eye and other kinds of sickness, and when personal problem like that they are pivotal to their problem and they cannot think for a way forward to even solve their personal problem and fend for themselves when they are release like this it makes them not to see a way forward for themselves not only that there are decision makers in our land that attend some of this program and while they are here they miracle they need we not be like the miracle of healing if they are not saved or miracle of psyche if they are not mind. The Lord can give them a little of wisdom and touch and show them the resources where we can have solutions to the problems (ideas) and ideas are powerful and ideas actually are the things we need to turn our lives around. This is how this kind of programme will help in various ways; we help families, government, decision makers and even the common man on the street, so that is why this program is important as we can change our world by connecting with the Lord. - THE NATION
